摘要
多任务处理已经成为员工工作场所中普遍存在的工作压力情境。本文基于调节焦点理论,探讨多任务处理对员工工作拖延行为的作用机制和边界条件。通过对342份两阶段调查数据的分析发现:(1)多任务处理既能诱发员工的促进型调节焦点,又能诱发员工的防御型调节焦点;(2)促进型调节焦点和防御型调节焦点分别在多任务处理与工作拖延行为之间起中介作用,即多任务处理不仅通过增强员工促进型调节焦点进而减少工作拖延行为,还可能通过增强员工防御型调节焦点进而增加工作拖延行为;(3)未来工作自我清晰度能够强化多任务处理对促进型调节焦点的正向作用,并且能够强化促进型调节焦点在多任务处理与工作拖延行为之间的中介作用;(4)未来工作自我清晰度能够削弱多任务处理对防御型调节焦点的正向作用,并且能够削弱防御型调节焦点在多任务处理与工作拖延行为之间的中介作用。研究结论不仅为从理论上揭示多任务处理与员工工作拖延行为之间关系机制提供了新思路,更为多元任务现象下的人力资源管理实践提供了重要的实践启示。
Multitasking is becoming a common workplace stress situation for employees.Domestic and foreign scholars have engaged in discussions on multitasking but failed to reach a consistent conclusion.Thus,further research is imperative to explore the impact of multitasking on employees’work behavior.Based on the regulatory focus theory,this paper constructs a dual mediation model to examine how multitasking affects workplace procrastination through employees’work regulatory focus.It also explores the boundary role of future work self-salience in the mechanism,aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between multitasking and workplace procrastination.This paper uses a questionnaire-based investigation to collect data,examines 342 sets of two-phase survey data,and produces the following results.(1)Multitasking can induce promotion focus and prevention focus.(2)Both respectively play a mediating role between multitasking and employees’workplace procrastination.(3)Future work self-salience can enhance the positive relationship between multitasking and employees’promotion focus,and can augment the mediating role of promotion focus between multitasking and workplace procrastination.(4)Future work self-salience can weaken the positive relationship between multitasking and prevention focus,and can also attenuate the mediating role of prevention focus between multitasking and workplace procrastination.The findings provide the following theoretical contributions.First,it enriches the research on the impact of multitasking on workplace procrastination.By verifying the double-edged sword mechanism of how multitasking affects workplace procrastination,this paper provides a theoretical basis for individuals and organizations to comprehensively understand multitasking,offering a new perspective for resolving the controversy over the relationship between multitasking and workplace procrastination.Second,it effectively reveals the mechanism of individual regulatory focus in the differential impact of m
